The decision, and several that followed from it, helped Republicans quickly redraw congressional district in Southern states like Louisiana and Alabama to give the GOP an advantage in this year\u2019s midterm elections.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            And those numbers do not take into account rulings on the court\u2019s emergency docket, where the liberal and conservative wings have split more frequently<strong>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThe court\u2019s tendency to decide important cases along 6-3 partisan lines is a serious problem for the court\u2019s legitimacy,\u201d said David Cole, a Georgetown Law professor who frequently argued before the court as the legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union. \u201cThe justices are supposed to be guided by law, not politics.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cEven if many divides reflect differences in legal worldview, not politics, the more they divide along party lines, the less credibility the court has as an institution,\u201d Cole said.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            To be sure, some of the most important cases this term have brought liberal and conservative justices together. The court\u2019s decision in February to invalidate Trump\u2019s sweeping global tariffs counted three conservatives and three liberals in the majority. Last week, the court unanimously decided that the Second Amendment barred the government from disarming a Texas man just because he frequently smokes pot.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            But the number of 6-3 ideological decisions is often trotted out by the court\u2019s critics and its supporters as both attempt to frame the court\u2019s direction as they lodge and parry criticism of how the court is resolving politically fraught issues.The justices themselves will often brush aside the 6-3 outcomes and point out the large share of cases that are decided unanimously, even though those usually involve more technical questions with far less reach<s>.<\/s>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cIt bothers me because it\u2019s not accurate,\u201d Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a conservative, said last month at the George W. Bush Presidential Center of the focus on 6-3 decisions. The far higher share of opinions that are decided unanimously, Barrett said, \u201cis not the narrative that\u2019s portrayed in the media.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium_large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"thumb_22737782_2838234.1059999997_thumb.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-3489\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/e2dddde8ee34dfa4af0d96d16f7c0572-768x432.jpg\" width=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/e2dddde8ee34dfa4af0d96d16f7c0572-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/e2dddde8ee34dfa4af0d96d16f7c0572-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/e2dddde8ee34dfa4af0d96d16f7c0572.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>Video Ad Feedback<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>An explosive appeal from Trump over E.

It also split along ideological lines on the most substantial holding of a decision that blocks members of the Falun Gong religious movement from suing Cisco for selling equipment to the Chinese government they said aided and abetted the group\u2019s torture.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Damon Landor is seen in this photo from court documents related to the case.\" class=\"wp-image-3491\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/bf9a22d59e63659520014c8cb50d55fb.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>Damon Landor is seen in this photo from court documents related to the case.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>US Supreme Court<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Supreme Court rules against Rastafarian who sued prison officials for cutting his dreadlocks<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div>4  min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<h2>\n        Major decisions coming\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            Over the next week, the court is expected to rule on Trump\u2019s effort to end birthright citizenship as it has been understood for more than a century as well as the president\u2019s attempt to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.
